Hi all, i am trying to get java working under firefox for a while. Before you think here's another dude that can't read the FAQ. I did read em, firefox and the plugin are both gcc3.2 compiled, i made a ln -s and did not copy the libjavaplugin_oji.so. The problem occurs under 0.7(firebird) and 0.8 firefox. Java even works perfect when i run FireFox(0.8 and Firebird 0.7) as ROOT. But i do not want to run firefox as root(duh). So i thought hmm it will be an acces-rights issue(and not an incompatible plugin(as in gcc3.2)). Also flash and PDF plugins run flawless. First i've checked the links(ln -s) i created to libjavaplugin_oji.so... no that file has sufficient acces rights(rwxr-xr-x) Second I've checked the pluginreg.db and it has (-rw-r--r-- but the user owns it(thus not root) Furthermore i checked the whole /usr/home/vince/.phoenix dir and everything is owned by the user. What am I missing? I feel it is something very simple, but i have no more inspiration... Hope somebody knows what i am missing Regards, Vincent
